Highlights
The Calipso liveaboard schedules year-round diving in the Galapagos National Park. Completely renovated in 2019, everything was designed to offer comfort and a fresh, modern environment. There are 6 cabins on the upper deck and 2 cabins on the main deck, each with panoramic windows, en-suite bathrooms, a hairdryer, individually controlled AC, a TV with hundreds of films to choose from, a safety deposit box, USB charging ports, and laminate flooring. Beds are doubles that can be converted into two singles. There is also a single cabin located on the lower deck with no single supplement, subject to availability. At 33m in length, there is more than enough space for 16 guests and 11 crew members on board. Social areas include an indoor salon and dining area, where international and Ecuadorian cuisine is served, featuring fresh local produce and seafood. The top deck has lounge chairs, a BBQ, a bar, and a hot tub.
Calipso Galapagos dive itineraries are 7 nights long and explore the world-famous Wolf & Darwin for the chance to get up close with whale sharks, hammerheads, and dolphins. Calipso also visits Marchena, previously only dived by a few scientists and filmmakers; it is known for having huge pods of dolphins, schools of Hammerheads, and Galapagos sharks. The large dive deck at the back of the boat has rinse tanks, hot water showers, dedicated camera storage and cleaning areas, and personal towels.

Amazing week
The whole agenda felt like it was matched for the guests. Amendments due to crazy weather and alternative locations were no trouble and the added bonus of swimming with orcas that the crew went out of their way to accommodate was absolutely the highlight of our week. We came as a multi generational group of 6 and all agreed it was the best weeks holiday we had.

- The Galapagos really delivers the best in diving - pristine, so many animals, a truly special place. The Calipso was well suited for scuba diving; the hot towels and hot showers on the dive deck hit the spot after each dive. The crew was engaging and fun.

Best decision of your life!
The liveaboard with Calipso was indescribable. The crew really does everything to ensure that guests have an unforgettable stay. Everyone helps, acts courteously and friendly. The procedures and briefings are always clear and comprehensible, while there is always enough fun and moments to laugh about. The culinary supply is worth mentioning, there are varied, extremely tasty dishes that are served appealingly. Diving in the Galapagos Islands is phenomenal and fascinating. The ship is spacious with many areas to feel good. All in all, it was the best decision to book Calipso and experience a wonderful holiday.

Once-in-a-lifetime dive trip
Wolf and Darwin had it all: whale sharks, hammerhead sharks without end, eagle rays of all sizes. Diving with marine iguanas, baby rays and penguins was just amazing. The first submersible to conduct an evacuation exercise. Fantastic food, loving service and great guides, who also provided a lot of general information about the Galapagos Islands.

Seeing the diversity of species in the Galapagos always has you waiting for the next exciting moment! Every day was fantastic! The crew went above and beyond to help us in every way, from diving, to cooking, to cabin cleaning and all the little things inbetween. Couldn't have been happier with our amazing trip!
